Science

• Are the things that we use to survive, support life, and satisfy our needs. They are not made by people rather they are gathered from nature.

  Natural Resources
• are natural

  resources of water that are potentially

  useful for humans, for example as a

  source of drinking water supply or

  irrigation water. 97% of the water on

  Earth is salt water and only three

  percent is fresh water; slightly over

  two-thirds of this are frozen in glaciers

  and polar ice caps.

  Water Resources
• an area of land on a slope. This is the reason why it is sometimes called a catchment area or drainage basin. This is also where water in your community came from.

  Watershed
• process of evaporating a liquid and then cooling the steam at a certain temperature to condense into its pure substance

  Distillation
• a separation process used to reduce the dissolved salt content of saline water to a usable level.

  Desalination
• the path that all water follows as it moves around Earth in different states.

  Hydrological cycle or water cycle
• water is important as we humans are

  70% made up of water
• is a naturally occurring substance with distinctive chemical and physical properties, composition and atomic structure

  Mineral
• are generally made up of two of more minerals, mixed up through geological processes.

  Rocks
• elements are present in their raw form of Iron, Copper, Tin, Nickel, Gold, etc.

  Metallic
• do not contain any metal substances in them. Ex. sand, gravel, limestone, marble, clay.

  Nonmetallic
• Any material that can be used as a basis or source of energy. Are used to generate electricity and other forms of power for human use.

  Energy Resources
• A fossil fuel formed from the remains of plants and animals. Other fossil fuels include oil and coal.

  Natural Gas
• is thermal energy extracted from the Earth's crust. It combines energy from the formation of the planet and from radioactive decay.

  Geothermal Energy
• radiation from the Sun capable of producing heat, causing chemical reactions or generating electricity.

  Solar Energy
• source of energy that generates power by using a dam or diversion structure to alter the natural flow of a river or other body of water.

  Hydropower Energy
• Any material that derived from living organisms that can be used to benefit humans. Biological resources include, plants, and animals.

  Biological Resources
• Types of Natural Resources

  Renewable and Nonrenewable
• Resources that can be replaced

  Renewable
• are the resources that cannot be replaced easily. Or it takes a very long time to replace

  Nonrenewable
• Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs

  Sustainability
• In 2015, the United Nations adopted the _______, which will culminate in 2030.

  Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
• used wind to produce electricity by converting the kinetic energy of air in motion into electricity.
